Overview

  • Funcom has opened patch 1.1.20.0 on the Steam Public Test Client ahead of its scheduled August 12 live deployment.
  • Ornithopters that collide now receive an impulse separation to prevent griefing tactics that trap carrier vehicles.
  • Colliding with a sandworm during any of its animations will kill the player or destroy their vehicle, closing unintended riding exploits.
  • Unsupported Pentashields will collapse upon full release and key resource fields in Hagga Basin have been repositioned into worm danger zones.
  • The update adds deposit-all buttons for blood purifiers and water cisterns, a searchable exchange with reorganized categories and adjusted item prices.
